Hi I meet the issue that ie throws exception "the setcapture attribute is not supported" in IE browser. here is my demo link: https://github.com/morphyguo/qooxdoo_svgdemo

You need some patches in qooxdoo to make it work in all cases. The "problem" is, that qooxdoo does not expect SVG elements in certain places. IE and SVG is somewhat broken. That's the reason why we do not support IE in conjuction with SVG anymore. We filed several bugreports to Microsoft (even for Edge), but they didn't seem to be willing to fix them for three years now. As a result, we're blocking this browser completely and tell the user to use something else.

Thanks. Is any links about bugreports to Microsoft? And please could you send the patches to me when you are free? appreciate it.

I need to search for them in our bugtracker. And I need to extract the patches from our local qx clone. Both tasks require some time that I'll most likely not have until monday. So I have to put you off for some days. Sorry.
